"I'm sorry, Shen Ye." Su Li’s voice carried a hint of finality. "I don't need an hour; I can tell you right now that I cannot marry you."
"Ha," Shen Ye’s laugh was filled with self-mockery. "You don't even have to think about it, no need to even consider it, is that right? Su Li, it is only now that I realize that in your heart, I’m not even worth two minutes of your consideration."
Su Li bit her lip, not daring to look him in the eye. Her heart felt as if it were being pierced by countless needles, the pain so intense it left her numb. Perhaps she really should let go; there was no path left for them. They should have severed ties long ago. It was her own greed for his presence, her inability to let him go, that had made her want to hold onto him time and time again, even if it were only until the very last day.
